"Mr President, the year 2008 will differ from the current year in that it will not bring a further enlargement of the Union. The coming year will, however, provide an opportunity to develop economic and political relations between the Union and a number of important countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and also for instance in the South Caucasus, as previous speakers have already mentioned.
We must keep two Union priorities in mind. Firstly, participation in peaceful stabilisation, notably in the Middle East and South Asia. Secondly, exerting pressure on all our partners to ensure that the development of our bilateral relations in the areas of economics and politics is linked to respect for human rights. This applies to each and every one of our partners, regardless of whether the particular country concerned is a poor African or Asian one, powerful Russia or fast-developing China. These two areas, the political and economic on the one hand and human rights on the other, cannot be torn asunder and dealt with separately."@en1
